Day 1: London

Hello all!  After about 24 hours of flying, we landed in London! 

 
London had a lot of expected things!  Amazing landmarks:

 
Amazing people:
 
And we also saw some unexpected things... like this gigantic fish!
 
 
Turns out the London has a fantastic little aquarium!  They put a big emphasis on shark conservation and breeding!

On our first morning, we dropped in to visit the Queen....
... but she apparently had a prior engagement. 
Oh well, I'm sure she'll be free for tea tomorrow.
 
We got a birds eye view of the city from the London Eye!
 
Day two looks promising as I will be visiting the cephalopod collections at the National Museum of London.  They have a lot of important specimens to view for my phD!
